Greggs - Council.

Primark. - Council

Greggs inside a Primark - Counsil squared?

Newcastle, Bristol, Birmingham, Liverpool, some dude called Riccardo Seaton, the fact it's a Reach story, the only thing in that entire article that is NOT council is the correct use of the apostrophe in the title.
Ive not used Primark since about 2003 so may not be fit to comment, however, I really don't see the point, especially for the Newcastle store as there are at least 4 Greggs stores within 5-600m from the store entrance in each direction anyways!

Same as the Asda near me that has a full McDonalds inside it - Ive just never understood the need!
It’s a bit like people who use the corner shop next to the supermarket, it’s 200% dearer, but 10% less effort, so lazy wins

Perhaps if Greggs didn't take it, some other food place would have done. Greggs take it to keep the money with Greggs.

Everytime I go to Trowbridge, I'm reminded why I hate Trowbridge. I parked in the car park over the Gateway, a car park so awful it doesn't even show on Google Maps. It stinks of piss, and I mean really stinks of piss, and there was a tramp asleep in the bottom of the stairwell.

In fact, that's not council, that's sad and tragic.

What is council is though that every third person in Trowbridge has a dole pole.

Compo face needs work. I'm no CAZ fan, but there's a few of these people appearing lately. It's always someone else's fault they have got fined.

Can we please exempt Fred Perry polo shirts from this, as i have been wearing them since the 70s. angel
Indeed. I have a couple of nice Tommy Hilfiger Tailored suits. A world away from ‘Tommy Sport’ underpants.

No full house, the kids all have relatively normal names.
But three are autistic, allegedly.
And one is ginger where the rest aren't....

Milkmen don't really exist anymore, so probably the postman. hehe
